Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
It could be a leucoderma or fungal infection. Do you have white patches any where else on the body. Because leucoderma presents as discrete white patches in multiple areas all over the body. Localized white spot is more likely to be fungal infection. Best is to consult a dermatologist and get the white patch examined. Wish you all the best.
Hi well come to HCM.
without clinical examination it is difficult to answer but guess work and possibilty
is either leucoplakia or leucodrma could be the possibility. Better show it to your
guynecologist and in case of need she may take assistance from dermatologist.Thanks
